STUDY: AFFORDABLE HOUSING IS A STRUGGLE FOR ABOUT 1 IN 5 GREENVILLE COUNTY RESIDENTS CINDY LANDRUM | STAFF

clandrum@communityjournals.com

With the exception of the City of Greenville, housing in Greenville County is quite affordable and rarely attached to a long commute, a consultant told members of the Greenville County Council — as long as a household earns at least $30,00 a year.

Those who don’t struggle.

“The rough lesson is don’t be old, don’t be single, don’t be old and single, don’t be a mom and single,” said Charles Buki, of czb LLC, the Alexandria, Va.-based urban planning and neighborhood development consulting firm that was hired to do an affordable housing analysis for the Greenville County Redevelopment Authority and Greenville County. The firm completed a similar study for the City of Greenville in 2016.

The county has a shortage of 9,432 housing units that are affordable to households earning less than $25,000 per year, a group that makes up more than 23 percent of those who reside in Greenville County but outside the boundar-

ies of the City of Greenville, according to the study.

Greenville’s downtown vibrancy hinges on tourism, restaurants, and hotels, which rely on $8-to-$10-an-hour labor to clean rooms, bus tables, and tend bar, Buki said.

Using the commonly accepted definition of affordable as being no more than 30 percent of household income, the $520 monthly rent they can afford is infeasible for the private market to deliver without subsidy, he said.

In Greenville County, there are 60,000 households

whose maximum affordable rent is less than for-profit developers need to break even, Buki said.

“Should the county’s trajectory of economic growth continue, it is only a matter of time before teachers and first responders also find themselves priced out of good housing options,” the study said.

Right now, households with annual incomes between $40,000 and $60,000, who are able to afford rents between $1,100 and $1,700 a month, have the capacity to find a good apartment near their jobs in the county. But there is a shortage of homes to buy that are priced between $140,000 and $220,000. That means they’ll rent longer, occupying apartments that would otherwise be rented by households with slightly lower incomes, or they will buy outside of the county, Buki said.

“In a funny way, you hope Spartanburg doesn’t become more livable,” Buki told members of the Greenville County Council’s ad-hoc affordable housing subcommittee.

Buki said that some county residents in low-paying jobs grow their housing capacity by marriage or partnership with another low-wage worker. A worker making $9 an

The county has a shortage of 9,432 housing units that are affordable to households earning less than $25,000 per year, a group that makes up more than 23 percent of those who reside in Greenville County but outside the boundaries of the city of Greenville. hour who is married to a minimum-wage worker can afford $938 in monthly rent, more than enough to find a good apartment in the county.

“Your county is superbly set up for a couple but is disastrously set up for a single,” he said.

Buki recommended the county work to preserve and improve existing stock of affordable housing, help qualified low- and moderate-income working households employed in Greenville County become homeowners in the county, and add to the supply of affordable rental housing through new rental housing development. Buki recommended the county spend $36.4 million over the next five years to address the problem. That money would help 675 households per year.

TRAINING GROUND

Greenville Tech partners with S.C. Army National Guard to open $22M joint training facility at SCTAC

ANDREW MOORE | STAFF

amoore@communityjournals.com

Greenville Technical College has partnered with the South Carolina Army National Guard to open a joint training facility at the South Carolina Technology and Aviation Center.

The 95,225-square-foot facility, located at 915 Perimeter Road, now houses the S.C. Army National Guard Readiness Center and Greenville Tech’s aircraft maintenance technology and truck driver training programs, according to a news release.

“Partnerships allow Greenville Technical College to serve our area’s employers as we ensure that students have the education needed to succeed,” said Dr. Keith Miller, president of Greenville Technical College, in the release. “This arrangement with the South Carolina Army National Guard is one that we are particularly proud of, as it means that we come together to make optimal use of space, to meet a training requirement for Guard personnel, to give students the skills they can put to work right away, and to see that the aviation industry in our area is well supported.”

Miller added that the new $22 million training facility would allow Greenville Tech to expand enrollment in its aircraft maintenance technology program, which is currently licensed by the Federal Aviation Administration for 120 students.

The aircraft maintenance technology program provides students with the skills needed to become aircraft maintenance technicians, according to Carl Washburn, department head of aviation and trucking at Greenville Technical College.

Greenville Tech currently offers certificates, an associate degree, and a bachelor’s degree, according to Washburn. Students pursuing a certificate can study airframe, power plant, or avionics.

Carl Washburn, department head of aviation and trucking at Greenville Technical College.

Photo by Will Crooks Each program takes about 18 months to complete. The associate degree path, on the other hand, takes about two years to complete and requires students to complete 1,000 hours in lab/classroom work and 1,000 working on airplanes.

Washburn said the new joint training facility provides lab space for students and includes a large hangar space that can house the program’s 12 fixed-wing aircraft, including a 1983 Falcon 10 Dassault aircraft recently donated by Spinx Inc., and one helicopter.

Greenville Tech will also offer training to South Carolina Army National Guard personnel, supporting their need for qualified airframe and power plant technicians to work on Lakota helicopters, according to the release. The training will be offered to the National Guard Bureau as a consolidated regional or national training solution.

The aircraft maintenance technology program will use the facility during the week, while the South Carolina Army National Guard will use it on the weekends, said U.S. Army Col. Andrew Batten, state aviation officer, in the release.

“Within this new facility, the S.C. Army National Guard and Greenville Technical College established a program that fulfills National Guard aircraft maintenance training requirements while addressing the civilian aviation workforce demand associated with South Carolina’s growing aerospace industry,” he added. “Combining this National Guard Readiness Center housing multiple aviation units with the Aircraft Maintenance Technology program provides greater utilization of the facilities and thus greater value to our state. Additionally, this partnership will enable our soldiers to obtain an associate degree in addition to their FAA Airframe and Powerplant Technician certification.”

TRANSIT PLAN OUTLINES HOW GREENLINK COULD EXPAND HOURS, SERVICE CINDY LANDRUM | STAFF

clandrum@communityjournals.com

Greenlink Director of Transportation Gary Shepard knows that public transportation in Greenville County needs to be improved.

Now, there’s a plan that would roughly double the size of Greenlink — increasing the frequency and number of routes. But it comes at a cost. If everything in the plan is done, the bus system’s annual operating cost would more than triple, and capital costs would exceed $55 million.

“We need money, resources, and direction from the community,” Shepard said.

“We know we can do better, but the question is who pays?”

Connetics Transportation Group had two recommendations for Greenlink’s Transit Development Plan — increase hours and frequency, and add routes.

The recommendation included providing service later at night and on Saturday, increase route frequency both during the week and Saturday, and eventually adding Sunday service. The consultant evaluated 23 new routes and recommended 19 be implemented, including commuter routes for U.S. 123, U.S. 276, and Interstate 385; routes that would serve roads such as Woodruff Road, Laurens Road, Church Street, and Mills Avenue; and connectors to Greer, Fountain Inn, and Travelers Rest.

The immediate five-year plan includes extending weekday service to 11:30 p.m. and running Saturday service from 5:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. by 2020. Two years later, the system would replace its existing fleet.

The consultants said the transit system should open a new maintenance facility in 2023. The Greenville Transit Authority has asked the City of Greenville to determine

2020

BUS SCHEDULE

• Expand weekday service to 11:30 p.m.

• Operate on Saturdays from 5:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.

• Extend paratransit service until 11:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday

2022

• Replace existing fleet

interest in the property at 154 Augusta St., Greenlink’s current maintenance facility that originally was a beer distribution center. The facility is more than 30 years old and in disrepair. The facility can only contain two buses to be worked on at a time, and lacks parking for additional fleet vehicles should Greenlink expand its fleet.

GTA submitted a grant application to the Federal Transit Administration that would have provided 90 percent of the money needed to buy land and build a new facility but did not receive it.

Shepard said Greenlink would apply for a BUILD grant, the new version of the TIGER grant, for the project. “There’s no question about our overwhelming need,” he said. The new application will leverage the federal money better, Shepard said. Nicole McAden, Greenlink’s marketing and public relations specialist, said, “Meeting the minimum match is not competitive.”

The transit development plan also calls for the addition of Sunday service in 2024.

“All of this is a platform to build on,” Shepard said. “It is data-driven, but it does not take into account political and community will. How we are able to collaborate with public and private entities will determine how we proceed. Ultimately, we’ve laid out scenarios and we’ll address what is desired more, but the big question is who pays?”

The plan could open up public transportation in Greenville County to a greater range of people, Shepard said. Now, the system is thought of as a way for people without cars to get around, not surprising when talking about routes, hours, and frequency of the buses.

“If you think about it, who else in the world would use it?” he said.

“ Honoring those who have died in service to our country is one way I can channel that grief to make a difference.”

TOUGH ENOUGH Greenville’s first Hard Hitter GORUCK & Ride was founded by Lisa Roten Lorbiecki to honor her brother, Special Forces Weapons Sergeant David B. Roten Jr., who was killed in action while serving in the U.S. Army WORDS BY MELODY WRIGHT “Memorial Day weekend is the time we set aside to honor the lives and the sacrifices of our military and their families,” Lisa Roten Lorbiecki, of Greenville, says. “It is a time to reflect on the people who have fought for our freedom, who have shown great courage and bravery, and ultimately gave their lives doing so.”

Lorbiecki chose to honor her brother, Staff Sgt. David B. Roten Jr., with the inaugural Hard Hitter GORUCK & Ride to benefit the Green Beret Foundation over Memorial Day weekend, May 25-26. This event, which is part of a nationwide network of events, honors those who lost their lives in service both to the United States and their families.

Like so many others, Lorbiecki has experienced firsthand the grief of losing a loved one, which is why she brought the event to Greenville. “Not a day goes by that I don’t miss him terribly,” she says. “Honoring those who have died in service to our country is one way I can channel that grief to make a difference. And it’s special to be able to do it in a way that engages our community.”

GORUCKs GORUCK Light: 7-10 miles, 4-5 hours, May 26 at 2 p.m.

GORUCK Tough: 15-20 miles, 10-12 hours, May 25 at 9 p.m. *The GORUCK routes will be posted to goruckandride.com.

RIDES 10 miles: 10 a.m. May 26 30 miles: 10 a.m. May 26 70 miles: 9 a.m. May 26 *Participants should register online at goruckandride.com as early as possible due to limited registration.

Greenville is a bicycle-friendly community with South Carolina’s first on-street protected bike lane. The Greenville Health System Swamp Rabbit Trail provides 20 miles along the Reedy River for bikers to explore. Greenville strives to encourage safe bicycle travel on shared roads and trails.

THE EVENT

Unlike last year’s bike-only event, this year the dual Hard Hitter GORUCK & Ride makes its debut. Participants can choose to do either a GORUCK challenge or a bike ride, or both.

“The two GORUCK events are inspired by the most elite training offered to Special Forces soldiers and led by Green Berets. The GORUCK is a team event, building toughness, teamwork, and trust,” Lorbiecki says.

For those wanting to prove their capability to themselves and their team members, participants can choose between the GORUCK Tough (takes 10-12 hours) and the GORUCK Light (takes 4-5 hours).

“Anyone can sign up. If you’re not an experienced cyclist, we recommend doing the 10- or 30-mile ride. Or challenge yourself in another way by doing the GORUCK Light or Tough,” Lorbiecki says.

On May 26, three open-road bike rides led by cyclists at Carolina Triathlon will offer participants an opportunity to ride for a cause.

The two longer rides include SAG support and rest stops.

The celebration and memorial cookout, including food and beer, will occur on Welborn Street near Carolina Triathlon after the rides and before the departure of the GORUCK Light.

The honoree, Roten, served as a decorated Special Forces weapons sergeant in the United States Army. He was honorably discharged in 2010 and supported the U.S. government in austere environments. Roten was killed in action on Nov. 27, 2014.

“He lived and served with unwavering commitment, passion, and courage, always pushing himself beyond his limits to be the very best,” his sister says. “In how he both lived and died, he inspired others to greatness and continues to do so to this day. It is that spirit that inspired and is celebrated during this Memorial Day weekend dual event.”

The event gets its name from the Hard Hitter Award, which originated in 2006 with the leaders of Operational Detachment Alpha (ODA) 043 during Operation Iraqi Freedom in Baghdad.

“The purpose of the award was to honor the best performing, most dependable, and hardest working operator each week,” the GORUCK website reads. “SSG David B. Roten Jr. was awarded the weekly Hard Hitter Award more than any other member of ODA 043. Subsequently, SSG Roten was recognized and honored as ODA 043’s first annual Hard Hitter awardee and was presented with the coveted and hard-earned sledgehammer.”

To honor Roten’s sacrifice, Bravo Company, 3rd Battalion, 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne) carried on the tradition with the creation of the annual Dave Roten Hard Hitter Award given to one of the 100 men in the company.

Lorbiecki knows her brother would approve of such an event as the Hard Hitter GORUCK & Ride that brings everyone together to test their limits and be active.

“He loved adventure and pushing his limits physically. From rock climbing, marathons, and triathlons to surfing and cliff diving, he loved being active,” she says.

“What an honor to get to be a part of continuing his legacy — a privilege to keep the fire alive that burned brightly in him,” Lorbiecki says.

Phil Mahla, who commanded the Special Forces company that Roten served in as a Special Forces NCO, also attests to Roten’s reputation. “Dave was the operations we all aspired to be and was very gifted in the art of being a warrior,” Mahla says.

THE IMPACT

To further the impact of her brother’s sacrifice, Lorbiecki is giving the proceeds of the event to the Green Beret Foundation, which directly and continuously supports those in the U.S. Army Special Forces and their families. The nonprofit, headquartered in San Antonio, helps Green Berets transition back into civilian life.

“Our ability to enjoy our freedom, to ride bikes and participate in GORUCKs, to raise families and go to work, to enjoy watching our daughters dance or our nephews play baseball, to sleep soundly at night — we can easily forget that there are brave men and women risking their lives day and night to provide us such beautiful freedoms,” Lorbiecki says.

As stated on its website, GBF has provided support to more than 2,515 Special Forces families since its inception, invested more than $8 million supporting its Special Forces community, and continues to spend 88 percent of its operating expenses on GBF programs.

“Every community, including Greenville, owes a debt of gratitude to these individuals,” Lorbiecki says. “The funds raised matter to the Green Beret Foundation, and they matter to Greenville.”

A dual event such as Hard Hitter GORUCK & Ride requires the careful coordinating of many moving parts. “It’s not easy to start an event like this from the ground up, but we are lucky to have good partners and support,” she says. “But when something like this matters to me, all of that is secondary — you just get it done.”

The ever-growing biking community in Greenville provided a great opportunity for Lorbiecki to engage cyclists and benefit the Green Beret Foundation.

“I want people to know this group, to appreciate their bravery, and one of the best ways to do this is to call attention to them by reaching people where they are — sharing the GBF in a way that would resonate with a large, active, vibrant part of our community, who would embrace the event and its cause,” Lorbiecki says.

GHS reveals newest facility dog

A new facility dog, King, has joined Greenville Hospital System’s F.E.T.C.H. (Friends Encouraging Therapeutic Coping and Healing) Unit. King is a 1-and-a-half-year-old golden retriever who is specially trained to provide physical, social, and emotional support to patients at GHS Children’s Hospital.

King joins several other therapy dogs including Kalle, Kenzie, and Vivitar. King has a special legacy at GHS, serving the hospital in honor of the late Betsy Eye. Often referred to as “Betsy’s dog,” King will bring joy to critically ill children during their extended hospital stays. King is the first dog to be donated in memory of a former patient, and he will even sport a specially designed patch commemorating his status as “Betsy’s dog.”

King’s arrival was made possible through an anonymous donor, who identified with Eye’s chronic condition by reading a popular patient blog. It costs approximately $25,000 to onboard a facility dog into the hospital. Eye was especially impacted by service dogs that brought her a special joy during her hospital stays.

Pollen Strategies Q. for your home sweet home

by Angela Self

How do I clean the yellow film off my outdoor living areas without

It’s that time of year…

Allergy Season. Some of us dread it and for good reason: 67 million people in the U.S. suffer from allergies, and our abundant outdoor beauty here in the Upcountry means dealing with loads of it. Year after year, the Carolinas rank as some of the worst places for allergy sufferers, and if you think you can escape pollen when you enter your home, then think again. Allergy symptoms are barely alleviated inside residential structures for most, but building biologist Angela Self says your home can be a refuge if you plan to keep the outdoors at bay.

contributing to my spring allergies?

A.

Let’s back up. Did you know the yellow coating produced by pine trees is not a significant allergy trigger?

It’s actually the pollens created by grasses and non-

pine trees, so your first line of defense is your outdoor area. Keep grass low and discourage growth of weeds, as they are the most prolific producers of allergenic pollen.

Q.

How can I keep pollen out of my home?

A.

The best way is to implement simple consistent habits: wear a hat outdoors, take your shoes and clothes off at the door or mud room (if possible), put your clothes

into the washer immediately and then take a shower and wash your hair. Remember, if you go to bed with pollen on your body or in your hair, you will spread the pollen in your bedroom. Building Biologists are always concerned about the bedroom first since your body is not only in healing mode while sleeping, but also more susceptible to all toxins.

Q.

Are there other ways my home can help me get through the spring?

Home Tips Do you have a neighbor who “tops off ” the refrigerant in their AC every year? Your cooling system doesn’t consume refrigerant like a car uses gasoline. The refrigerant inside your air conditioner is one of its most vital components. If it doesn’t have enough refrigerant to operate properly, it’s because you have a leak. Until a professional finds and repairs the leak, you’ll just be spending money and releasing chemicals into the environment.

Without enough coolant, your air conditioner cannot perform efficiently, and putting off the repair could lead to total system failure.

REUNITED After a decade-long hiatus, Jump, Little Children created a new album with help from a devoted fanbase VINCENT HARRIS | ARTS & CULTURE WRITER

vharris@communityjournals.com

During their decade-plus original run as a band, the Charleston quintet Jump, Little Children built an intensely loyal fanbase around the Southeast through nonstop touring and an infectiously energetic, brightly melodic style that blended heavyrock guitars and effortlessly catchy choruses. They managed to grow more popular just about every year after their 1991 formation, but gradually, their lack of national success, and increasingly disparate interests within the band, took their toll, and they played their last shows in 2005.

And unlike many popular regional bands from the era (The Blue Dogs come to mind), Jump, Little Children didn’t do periodic reunions or one-off shows; for 10 years, they remained resolutely broken up, though the band (singer and multi-instrumentalist Matt Bivins, his drummer brother Evan, singer/guitarist Jay Clifford, standup bassist Jonathan Gray, and cellist Ward Williams) remained friends. So, when they regrouped for a brief run of shows in 2015 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of their breakup, they weren’t sure what to expect.

What they got was a fan response just as passionate as they’d gotten when they were selling out shows around South Carolina in the early 2000s: The band’s first two reunion shows in Charleston sold out in minutes.

“I CONTINUE to be surprised by it,” Matt Bivins says of the fan response. “I think all five of us continue to be shocked and awed by it. We still fit into their lives in ways I never could have imagined. The fans took the music and the memories and the friendships out into the world with them, and now their children sing along to the songs. They’ve passed it on, and that’s remarkable.”

Slowly but surely, the Jump, Little Children machine started up again. The band regrouped in 2016 to play Charleston’s High Water Festival; then they announced a short run of Southeastern dates in 2017.

This could all have remained an exercise in nostalgia, but last year, buoyed by the response and by their own still-strong

musical chemistry, the band announced they’d be recording new music. They created a Pledge Music campaign to pay for the album, and the band set a time limit of six months to fully fund their future recording sessions. They needed only four.

“Our fans very generously funded this album, and we’re extremely excited about it,” Bivins says. “It’s a completely different age now; you don’t have to worry about major labels. You can directly ask the people who are going to buy your album anyway, ‘Hey, can you help us make this happen?’ And we’re so lucky and honored that in this case, they’ve done that.”

And for the first time since 2005, Jump, who will play May 10 at The Spinning Jenny in Greer, have planned a full tour, not just a few dates here and there. Bivins says that, for five men with families and other occupations who have essentially scattered all over the country, that is a BIG step.

“We all have our own lives and things we’re involved in,” he says. “So, we’re hitting a pause button on these projects, and it took a concerted effort. It’s great, but it’s also very interesting how settled we were in other lives. It’s a reminder of what we used to live like.”

What they “used to live like” in their original incarnation involved 100 percent

dedication to the band every moment of the day, and Bivins says the 10-year break did them nothing but good.

“In 2005, I spoke about the band as ‘we,’ because the band was the only thing in my life,” he says. “It was almost a cult-like experience. It was our life, AND it was our business. It was important for us to mature and get to know ourselves outside of a five-person rock band. And I think everybody has come back with that maturity.”

As for playing in the Upstate again, the lead singer of the band that used to sell out multiple nights at Greenville’s Handlebar or Spartanburg’s Magnolia Street Pub can’t wait.

“For my brother and I, it’s even more special, because our grandmother lived in Spartanburg, and our aunt still lives in Greenville,” he says. “The Upstate is literally a second home to us.”

After more than two decades, hip-hop group Bone Thugs-NHarmony isn’t going anywhere VINCENT HARRIS | ARTS & CULTURE WRITER

vharris@communityjournals.com

When they first emerged from Cleveland in the early 1990s, Bone Thugs-NHarmony (a quintet featuring Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone, Layzie Bone, Krayzie Bone, and Flesh-n-Bone) carried with them a dazzling synthesis of sounds. They combined

The Firmament in Greenville, and we spoke with Flesh-n-Bone recently about the band’s longevity, their live show, and the modern music business.

So what is a Bone Thugs-N-Harmony live show like?

With a catalog like ours, we have four or five different ones that we fluctuate and switch off on, and of course the major hits, “Crossroads,” “1st of tha Month,” “Thuggish, Ruggish Bone,” we do those. There are so many songs we can choose from.

And we’ve got a live band, as well, a full eight-piece band, so we can play around with a lot of different stuff onstage. We’re still trying to build the show to this day, adding laser lights, video screens ... we try to make it as theatrical as possible.

The beats are so dope today; I really love them. But even though I like these new guys, when a producer submits a beat, I want to press the button and hear the greatest sound I ever heard.

When somebody sits down with me and says, ‘Flesh, I got a beat for you,’ it has to be the hardest s— I ever heard. It HAS to. If you’re not approaching it like that, don’t waste my time.

You’ve been able to make a lot of music independently; do you think we’re past the point of groups needing major record labels?

The major companies will ALWAYS be relevant. Don’t get that twisted. They will always be a powerhouse factor. This is what I’m talking about: You can create quite a buzz when you have something that you can put out there and have 100,000 downloads in one day, or you can sign a major deal and do 2 or 3 million, and everybody gets their piece of the pie.

Business is business. You have to understand that. If you have a platform to do it independently, by all means, do it, but don’t hesitate to partner up with a major that’s going to put a well-oiled machine behind all your efforts. There’s nothing wrong with that.

lightning-fast rap flow with flawless vocal harmonies, joining the best of old-school R&B singing, endlessly catchy pop hooks, and streetwise hip-hop swagger into one irresistible package. On the strength of massive hits like “The Crossroads,” “1st of tha Month,” “Thuggish, Ruggish Bone,” and more, the group sold a staggering 50 million albums worldwide, and continued racking up gold and platinum plaques well into the 2000s, long after many of their contemporaries had faded away.

Twenty-five years down the line, Bone Thugs have continued to be one of the most durable franchises in hip-hop, selling out shows and spinning off side projects (like last year’s Bizzy and Krayzie Bone duo album, “New Waves”) while working both independently and with major labels.

What do you like about having a live band behind you? A lot of hiphop groups don’t do that.

I feel like [Jimi] Hendrix, you know what I’m saying? I feel like Prince or the Jackson 5 back when they were slamming with a band. It brings us to a whole different musical light when we’re slammin’ with a live band with a sick drummer and the guitars and all that stuff. They bring so much personality to the set. The s— is dope.

Bone Thugs have been around for more than 25 years; what do you think keeps people coming back?

I think at the end of the day, the Bone Thugs can touch your heart. Bizzy is lovable, Flesh is lovable, Krayzie is lovable, and we bring a certain element that’s inspiring, even if there’s a twist of negativity

SLICE OF LIFE Featuring music and lyrics by pop singersongwriter Sara Bareilles, ‘Waitress’ explores everyday struggles and triumphs EMILY PIETRAS | MANAGING EDITOR

epietras@communityjournals.com

Jenna Hunterson, a waitress and talented pie baker working at Joe’s Diner in a small Southern town, feels trapped.

Jenna is in a loveless marriage, and after discovering she is unexpectedly pregnant, she begins an impulsive affair with her new gynecologist, Dr. Jim Pomatter. Jenna hopes to enter a local pie-baking contest and use the prize money to leave her husband and begin a new life with her future child.

Such is the plot of “Waitress,” a musical based on the 2007 comedydrama film of the same name starring Keri Russell. The production will have an eight-show run at the Peace Center from May 8-13.

Desi Oakley, who plays Jenna, describes her character as “more or less stuck in a lot of ways.”

“A lot of her dreams over the years have been forgotten and squelched in a lot of ways,” she says.

But Jenna has a built-in support system through her friendships with fellow waitresses Becky and Dawn and the diner’s grumpy but kind-hearted owner, Joe. “Her eyes are sort of open[ed] to her reality and potential … and she starts to really accept herself through them,” Oakley says.

For Oakley, the highlight of “Waitress” is its musical numbers, written by singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles, who is known for chart-topping pop hits like “Love Song,” “King of Anything,” and “Brave.”

Oakley praises the songs as “remarkable to listen to” and says they all “sound like they could be on the radio.”

She singles out “A Soft Place to Land” as one of her favorites in the production. The song is performed with Charity Angel Dawson (Becky) and Lenne Klingaman (Dawn) in three-part harmony. “We’re all talking about our dreams, and they’re really different dreams, but we’re all saying the same words, so the words kind of connect us,” Oakley says. “The song is so beautiful, and it connects me to the two of them, and it’s an anchor for me throughout the show.”

At the heart of “Waitress” is an exploration of everyday people who have everyday problems but also great hopes and dreams.

“It’s so relatable. It’s so real. It’s so universal. It’s so down-to-earth,” Oakley says. “It’s such a fun, lighthearted but really deep piece of theater.

You can laugh one minute and cry the next.”

“I know audiences will really eat it up — no pun intended,” she adds.

BACKSTAGE

WORDS BY EMILY PIETRAS PHOTO BY WILL CROOKS

A Q&A with costume designer Thomas Brooks

Backstage is a recurring series that appears in the Greenville Journal’s culture section that is designed to bring the theater community and the community at-large closer together through Q&As with local actors, directors, and designers who are instrumental in shaping our performing arts scene.

When Thomas Brooks was a student at North Greenville University pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in theater, he wasn’t initially aiming for a career in costume design. But a course requirement and encouragement from professors led him to give it a shot as an undergrad, and Brooks ultimately discovered that costume design was his niche.

Since then, Brooks has worked with Centre Stage, Upstate Shakespeare Festival, Mill Town Players, and the Charleston Performing Arts Center.

Now the resident costume designer for Greenville Little Theatre, Brooks’ recent credits include designs for the theater’s productions of “Ragtime: The Musical,” “Sher-

lock Holmes and the Christmas Goose,” and “Frosty.”

He’s currently working on “Beauty and the Beast,” which will premiere at GLT on June 1.

When did you first become involved in costume design, and when did you know this is something you wanted to do long term?

I went to North Greenville University to study technical theater. While there, one of the course requirements was to take costume and makeup design. I remember my design teacher and costuming teacher saying that I had a very good eye for design and should consider designing a show. After

several discussions, I agreed to design “Little Women the Musical,” and everything else fell into place after that. I decided to do an internship at Greenville Little Theatre (GLT) and then was hired as a stitcher after my internship. After a couple years of freelancing in S.C., I decided to take up the offer of resident costume designer at GLT.

What has been your most challenging play to design for and why?

There have been a few plays that have been challenging. The reason that I consider these plays challenging is because they are set in the modern era with modern

Give a show a time period, and I will have at it and research away, but when I start to work on a show that has no specific period and is modern, it becomes more challenging. There are just so many options for clothing and deciding what will look best while meeting the director’s vision and making sure the actor is comfortable in the costume. I love the challenge of modern shows, and finding the right look is always interesting and entertaining for me.

love to see photos of his work. I have had the privilege to work on several shows that he originally designed, for both film and television, and was heavily influenced by his work.

What do you most enjoy about Greenville’s theater scene?

I enjoy the diverse plays and styles that each theater brings to the audience. I have been able to work at several of the theaters, even if it was for one show or building a costume, and have greatly appreciated how welcoming and different all the theaters are.

What has been your most enjoyable play to design for?

How has Greenville’s theater scene changed since you first became “Hairspray” was the most enjoyable and involved?

upbeat play I had the privilege to design at GLT. I started planning and designing a year in advance and was building costumes as quickly as possible, knowing the show would be a beast. My favorite pieces from the show were Tracy’s finale dress, Motormouth Maybelle’s finale, and Edna’s red dress. I loved to see the costume designs and ideas I had in my head come to life when the show opened.

What’s your favorite play?

I have only been in Greenville for about six years now, but one of the things that I have seen is that as Greenville continues to grow, so does the audience. Greenville has always been a community that appreciates the arts, and you can tell that people are becoming more passionate about the theater. There is a strong theater community in the Upstate, and it’s encouraging to see how supportive everyone is of each other.

BARTENDERS YOU SHOULD KNOW

MILLS HIGGINS, THE ANCHORAGE WORDS BY ARIEL TURNER | PHOTOS BY WILL CROOKS

34 | GREENVILLE JOURNAL | 05.04.2018 GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM

W

hen Mills Higgins was a banquet server at Cliffs Valley, a coworker recommended he

try bartending.

“I thought, ‘There’s no way. I hate people.

I’m very anti-social,’” he says.

But he gave it a shot and caught the bartending bug.

Fast forward a few years when he was bartending as well as working in the corporate IT world.

“I really enjoy the development side of it, but I didn’t enjoy the corporate environment so much,” he says. “I didn’t enjoy being in a cubicle, not being able to interact. Basically, the anti-social kid found a love of talking to people.”

Higgins, 26, who admits he hates olives despite great effort to the contrary, has worked behind the bar of the Anchorage in the Village of West Greenville since it opened in January 2017, where only fresh ingredients made in-house are used. He’s been bartending full-time since he was 20, even while attending college to earn a degree in software information systems with a minor in criminal justice and then working a full-time in IT downtown Greenville.

“First year into the IT world I thought, ‘This sucks. I’ve made a horrible mistake,’” he says. “I thought I would do something cool with forensics.”

Instead, he ended up working at a bank, while still working or managing the bar at the Cliffs full time.

What took him from the shy, anti-social kid to a bartender who makes his living interacting with dozens of people each night was reading “The Joy of Mixology” by Gary Regan in his third year at the Cliffs.

“It changed my entire outlook on bartending,” he says. “It was something fun that I

COMMUNITYJOURNALS.COM

feast enjoyed doing. It paid the bills, but it really opened my eyes to the connection we have as far as using beverages as a way to really create a social bond among people. Whether it’s my great-grandfather and his Miller High Life he would have every Sunday or my great grandmother’s sweet tea or my other grandfather’s Glühwein he would make every winter — all these little beverages were a way of building social traditions.”

Higgins grew up 45 minutes north of Rutherford County, N.C. “I spent most of my time running around in the woods,” he says. “I grew up in a cabin. I didn’t realize I was a hick.”

His first taste of alcohol was mezcal his step-dad had smuggled under his shirt across the Mexican border into Texas in the ’90s.

“Hence my love of mezcal,” he jokes.

When he was 10 or 11 years old, his dad moved to Greenville, and he began spending weekends in the Upstate and eventually summers, which led to the job at the Cliffs.

He had previously worked in a variety of jobs, clearing lands, landscaping, construction, and roofing. His first food and bev job was at Larkin’s on the Lake, the original restaurant opened by the Greenville-based restaurant group in Lake Lure, N.C. There, he filled a variety of positions, doing line prep, dishwashing, hosting, and bar-backing.

Once he landed the Cliffs position and transitioned into bartending, it was a sharp learning curve. Cocktails were the easy part.

“Communication skills was the hardest part of the job,” he says. “Cocktails to me are a lot like cooking. You just suck at it for a really long time, and the more you do it the less you suck, and you learn to improvise and riff and kinda play on what you’ve done before. Developing the social skills that I had at the Cliffs is what, really, was the challenging part of the job. I love what I do, but that is

still to this day the most interesting dynamic, because you can control your drinks, you can control the products you put out there, but people are always going to be fun and weird.

That was definitely a little bit of a challenge.”

Learning to bartend in the unique environment at the Cliffs prepared him for pretty much any type of bar.

“Being in that background, I was really fortunate in that I was exposed to a lot of environments,” he says. “So you did a lot of clientele-based because you saw them seven days a week. You had to know their kids, their dogs, their houses, where they go on vacation, and you had to know their drink, and it had to be on the bar by the time they walked up. But I also did volume. We did a lot of private events, so I might have 400 screaming sorority girls. So I got to do a little bit of everything. I got to do craft work, customer relations. I got to do volume, which I really would’ve never had an opportunity to do anywhere else, so that, I think, rounded me out a little bit faster than if I had just been at Applebee’s slinging corporate drinks.”

While slinging the club-standard gin and tonics and bourbon and gingers, Higgins found time to start playing with his own cocktails.

“I also started experimenting with these weird, old, super sweet cocktails, and that’s really what kind of pushed me into the tropical background that I have and loving taking these old classic cocktails that are traditionally served really sweet or really huge and kind of dialing them back,” he says.

Those tropical cocktails — daiquiris, Palomas, rum runners — require balance to be elevated beyond a poolside beverage. He loves to throw in plantain bitters with a dark rum to bring out the banana flavor.

“The idea with tropical drinks is you want that sugar element to be present but you

also want that citrus there,” he says. “You want your rums that are in the background to really be playing up and forward, but everything has to be balanced. If you make it too sweet one way, or if you push it too nutty another way, the drink doesn’t really present as it should be.”

Pisco Sour

Favorite cocktail to make Pisco Sour

Pisco, lemon juice, sugar, egg white, and chuncho bitters (Peruvian vanilla bark bitters) “I love citrusy things and I love creamy things.” - Mills Higgins

Craziest cocktail ever made

Rum Runners at the Cliffs. Clear rum, spiced rum, aged rum, lime, pineapple, grenadine, blackberry liqueur, banana liqueur, blended all together and poured in a 16 oz. glass, then filled with cherries, pineapple wedges, and orange slices. “It was huge and atrocious and kitschy and totally delicious.”

Just when you think you’re keeping up with all the things in Greenville, you figure out you’re really not. For instance, did you know that last week Michelin took over Restaurant 17 at Hotel Domestique in Travelers Rest and flew in a French Michelin-starred chef from New York City to cook for a celebration dinner prior to a new product release? Chef Nicolas “Nico” Abello of the 32-seat, tasting-menu-only L’Appart restaurant in Manhattan and his sous chef Conor Greene joined Restaurant 17’s chef Nick Graves and presented a five-course dinner to Michelin’s 40 guests. The seafood-heavy menu included some of the most beautiful scallops you’ve ever seen, white asparagus from Provence, quail from Manchester Farm, and the same French caviar Abello serves in his restaurant every night. That chef Graves and the hotel owned by Rich and George Hincapie were chosen to host this prestigious event deserves some real snaps. Way to put the Upstate on the map, guys.

It’s beer o’clock somewhere Iron Hill Brewery and Restaurant opened May 1 in the former Don Pablo’s on Haywood Road next to Barnes and Noble. Props to the Iron Hill team for making that enormous, open space feel warm and welcoming. This concept that has been wildly successful in the Mid-Atlantic region used to be a favorite spot when I lived for several years in the Philadelphia area, so it’s great to see them expanding south. Aside from the wide variety of beer flight options, it’s also worth noting that the scratch kitchen turns out some tasty bites, so go hungry. I’ve written it before, but it bears repeating: Order the hand-cut sweet potato fries no matter what. The restaurant is also completely family-friendly and has an extensive gluten-free menu, if you’re into that sort of thing. Cheers!

“Red Herring” and “God of Carnage”

Centre Stage presents two shows, “Red Herring” and “God of Carnage,” which run concurrently during May. “Red Herring” is a murder-mystery and comedy set in 1952 during the height of the Cold War. A cast of six actors plays 18 unique characters. The play follows Maggie, a cop from Boston trying to find a scheming crime boss who disappeared on her — and stole her heart — and also deal with Frank, an FBI detective who wants to marry her.

Taylor Marlatt, director of marketing and development at Centre Stage, says that the feel for the show will still resemble the true ‘50s fashion but with some style changes. “The overall production of ‘Red Herring’ will be ‘shot’ in a sepia-tone feel to aid in the experience of bringing film noir to the stage,” she says.

“God of Carnage,” winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play, takes the audience through an evening in the lives of two couples in a Brooklyn neighborhood, who meet to discuss a playground incident. Alan and Annette’s son hit Michael and Veronica’s son in the face with a stick and subsequently broke two of his teeth. The four intend to discuss the incident civilly, but, as the night wears on and drinks are consumed, tempers begin to flare.

“We have four fantastic actors who quickly go from civil adults to children throwing tantrums in just a matter of moments,” Marlatt said. –Robert Hull

Masseuse

Smiley’s Acoustic Cafe | 111 Augusta St. | 6:30 p.m. | Free

When the Chattanooga quintet Masseuse formed five years ago at Middle Tennessee State University, they immediately hit on a danceable-butexperimental hybrid sound that combined funk, jam-rock, and progressive music, and that was before they added a cello to the mix. After that, Ben Van Winkle’s swooping, classically influenced playing made the band’s music more exotic, and haunting. Not that they were sure how the cello would fit in, at least at first. “It kind of crossed our minds, like, ‘Will this work?’” says bassist Kellen Shiles. “There were times in the beginning where we had to try to figure out where it fit into the sound, but we were always on the same page in terms of writing.”

That writing is surprisingly flexible, allowing the band to create funky grooves and layer more complex vocal and guitar lines over the top seamlessly, as they do on their new album, “Ambidextrous.” “We always knew we didn’t want to be a typical jam band,” Shiles says. “There was a more progressive part of it that had its place, as well. We always wanted to have a balance, where we didn’t just limit ourselves to what a typical jam band would do. We want to make sure we had a good song to start with and branch off from there.” –Vincent Harris

Fell Out of Bed: A Celebration of The Beatles,

Gottrocks | 200 Eisenhower Drive | 8:30 p.m.

As part of the Upstate music collective Local Green (and a member of the reggae-tinged jam outfit The LOZ Band), guitarist John Durham has made a lot of musical connections, and he’s often used them to put on massive tribute shows, like the one he created for The Beatles’ self-titled 1968 double-album (aka “The White Album”) at The Handlebar a few years back. But when you’re talking about the Fab Four, it’s easy Rush Morgan to overdo it, and the show ended up with a 50song set list that Durham admits was overkill. That’s why he’s taking another shot at it with Fell Out of Bed: A Celebration of The Beatles.

“This one was my attempt to consolidate a little bit because The Beatles are an easy band to get lost in the weeds with,” he says. “About a third of it is from ‘The White Album,’ mostly because those songs are nearest and dearest to me, but this time around I wanted to put a hard cap on it. Their well is so deep, you’re not going to be able to cover everything everyone wants to hear, but you can create a power-packed set list that just crushes it.” –Vincent Harris FRI-SAT

MAY 5 CONCERT

Radio Room | 110 Poinsett Highway | 8 p.m. | $7

Columbia’s Real Work, a project that combines gritty, indie-rock style guitars with polished, shimmering vocal harmonies, is the first band that Kenny McWilliams has sung lead vocals for. But that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been making a musical contribution elsewhere. As a producer/engineer at Archer Avenue Studio, he’s created great-sounding albums for a plethora of artists, including Valley Maker and All Get Out. And that skill behind the boards is a definite advantage when it comes to his own work.

“It is an ace in the hole,” says Real Work bassist Chad Rochester, who partnered with McWilliams to record the band’s first EP at Archer Avenue. “For him to be able to channel all of his creative energy into this partnership, it was exciting for me to be part of it.”

Actually, Real Work as a whole is a band with some serious experience; it features members from indie-rock stalwarts Baumer and the popular pop-rockers NEEDTOBREATHE. And Rochester says that being more mature has made Real Work’s music all that much better. “We’re all dads now,” he says, “so making music has taken on a life it didn’t have before. For us, we want to make the best music we possibly can, because we’re taking time away from our families to do it.” –Vincent Harris atmosphere where nature’s beauty and wildlife abound. www.kilgore-lewis.org/spring-garden-tour/ SAT

PUBLIC NOTICE DONALDSON AIR FORCE BASE (AFB) RESTORATION ADVISORY BOARD (RAB) The former Donaldson AFB is located 7 miles south of the City of Greenville in Greenville County, South Carolina (SC).

The facility was commissioned in 1942 as the Greenville Army Air Base for the training of B-25 crews. The name was changed in 1951 to Donaldson Air Force Base. Between 1942 and 1963 the Government constructed approximately 390 buildings, an extensive runway and taxiway system, fuel and utility systems, and other facilities on the 2,600 acre site. The facility was closed in 1963 and the property was transferred to the City and County of Greenville. Currently, the site is operated by the South Carolina Technology and Aviation Center (SCTAC) as a thriving industrial park that is utilized by more than 80 companies, including Lockheed Martin, Michelin, and 3M. An airport, Donaldson Field, operates on the former airfield and is capable of servicing large aircraft.

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is investigating and remediating the site under the Defense Environmental Restoration Program for

Formerly Used Defense Sites (DERP-FUDS).

Various site investigations have been conducted at the former Donaldson AFB to identify potential hazards. USACE has worked closely with the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control to establish and follow remedial actions protective of human health and the environment.

The Department of Defense encourages community involvement in the environmental restoration process.

A Restoration Advisory Board is one of many methods the US Army Corps of Engineers may use to facilitate public participation at a Formerly Used Defense Site.

RABs provide a collaborative forum for the community, government agencies, tribes and installation decision makers to discuss and identify the most efficient and productive means to restore the environment. RAB members meet regularly to review and comment on technical documents and plans relating to ongoing environmental studies and restoration activities. Members serve as liaisons with the community and are available to meet with community members and groups. RAB members also serve as volunteers and provide individual advice to decision makers on environmental restoration plans for the former Donaldson AFB. USACE welcomes public feedback regarding interest in establishing a RAB for the former Donaldson AFB no later than June 5, 2018. Inquiries or questions should be submitted to the following email address: Billy.E.Birdwell@usace.army. mil An information repository, which documents the rationale for all remedial action decisions for this site, is maintained at the SCTAC office, 2 Exchange Street, Greenville, SC 29605.
